Getting the Update

The .NET Core May 2017 Update is available from the .NET Core download site. CVE-2017-0248 effects a library which is not included in the Core download so developers can will need to update applications depend on System.Text.Encodings.Web by rebuilding with version 4.3.1 or higher.

For existing tags, such as runtime, sdk or latest, re-pulling the tag will update you local Docker image cache. For example docker pull microsoft/dotnet:latest will pull the updated image for the latest tag.
